The last, and possibly only, thing I'd seen about his time at Rangers stated how pleased they were with him being there. Sometime around the start of this season, I think.

Radio just said they've withdrawn that request, having utterly failed to consider the response it would get.

A world cup winning coach, a 2nd div coach in the land of total football and a guy how really shows just how high up you can play, despite having the most limited ability. Great inspirational examples! Welcome to the brand, Roberto! 😊

I was about to say that it's the extent of those extremes can takes a little bit of getting used to. But even typing it, I don't really think that's the case. We struggle to break down teams. We do a little better against more expansive teams. We have defensive blunders like everyone else. While Ralph is getting personnel changes in the door, it's on a limited budget, and there's only so much you can realistically expect from that. So sometimes when he tries things they really don't work. Sometimes they do work and play some stunning stuff. Despite the manner of the recent games, it's been a good season so far, and at least I'm not worrying aobut having dropped those points in a relegation battle. So yeah, a mid table team. On the plus side one that occassionally looks upwards, rather than rising to it from near the bottom at the end of a season.

On the plus side... your stream went down. It wasn't a great watch for the rest of the game. 😊

I'd prefer this to even more added time. it's also surely time for a gel break to be written into the rules.😊

Exciting Italian talent Garibaldi realises his future does not lie in joining Saints. 🙂

I guess he meant that we won't lose 4-0 to Villa again. It might be more next time, and in the meantime we can also lose to other teams. 🙂

I was surprised when Lewandowski popped up to get Watford's second... 🙂

Last time out showed that Ralph's playbook can't cope with tall folk that can head a ball. This time, the opposition having a strong bloke in the midfield defeats the playbook too. Sissouko bossed that. But we let it happen. Suicidal defending gifted them the first. Passing it across and out from the back because that's what they've been told to do, rather than having an awareness of the passes that needed to be done. Someone went missing for the second, as Perraud came across to cover. The intensity has really been lacking in recent games. I'd hate to think it's some sort of mental sigh of relief at pretty much getting to safety. Ralph playing Smallbone off of Adams seemed odd at the start. I've not seen enough of Smallbone to be able to say if he had all the attributes there. On recetn performances AA would have seemed a better shout. A fit Redmond could have doen a job there too. I could see that Ralph might have wanted to have a bit more presence just off where we had a front two. Redders in for Mo and AA for Smallbone would have bee a stronger set up. After a couple of defeats starting Smallbone was taking a chance. And it didn't work. Without that intensity or sense of purpose, it doesn't matter if it's two up front or 4-4-1-1. By the time the ball got anywhere near that area, Watford were more than set up for it. Very slow int he build up, and not putting pressure on them to make mistakes. KWP had the occassional moment, but niether him nor Perraud really pushed Watford back, or got a lot into the box. So , little going through the middle or from fullbacks meant that was a much, much easier game than it should have been against a team desperate to get out of relegation.

Long = goals!

Broja taken out by Foster

Good header from Adams. Good work from Redmond.
-
Broja didn;t beed to run that out, after decetn KWP dribble.
-
Bednarek takes out Dennis, so we can get a gel break.
-
that took 10 seconds from Romeu going off for them to get a chance.
-
wrong option from Mo there. Again, people in there waiting for a delivery.
